Understanding the Electronic Console
The electronic console lets you control your M9.41sl treadmill session. As you work out, the
electronic display provides constant feedback about your progress. Information about distance
covered, elapsed time, speed, total caloric burn, degree of incline, and heart rate (if you use the
Precor Heart Rate Option) is available at any time. When you use the Precor Heart Rate Option, the
chest strap that you wear transmits a signal which is picked up by the M9,41si software and
displayed numerically (when the Heart Rate indicator is lit).
The M9.41si also provides several preprogrammed courses and the ability to design your own
custom courses (CUST1 or CUST2). For more information, refer to Creating Custom Courses.
Displays on the Electronic Console
Indicator lights appear to show you which feature is being displayed. When you are working out,
the electronic console display presents each feature consecutively—this is called scanning.
Diagram 11 illustrates the electronic console display. Its features and keys are explained on the
following pages.
Note: Informative messages scroll across the display and prompt you to enter specific Information
before a workout. These messages request information and action, or explain problems that may
arise while you are using the treadmill. Some problems you can solve. Other problems may require
a qualified service technician. If you are unsure about an error message, please call a Precor
authorized service center. For the service center nearest you call, 1-800-4-PRECOR.
SMART RATE: ™ When the optional Precor heart rate receiver has been properly installed In the
treadmill a/rtf you wear the Precor Heart Rate Option’s chest strap, a blinking segment in the bar
graph appears on the left of the display. If you have entered your age (completed during the setup
prompts), the blinking segment shows you the zone that your heart rate is in: either Weight Loss or
Cardiovascular.
Important: Smart Rate and HEART RATE displays only appear when the Precor heart rate receiver
is installed in the electronic display anrfthe chest strap transmitter is worn. Smart Rate does not
appear when you use the Quick Start key. If the Smart Rate segment appears, but does not blink, it
means that a receiver is installed, but that you are not wearing the chest strap transmitter or it is
not working properly. To correct transmitter problems, refer to your Precor Heart Pate Optbn
Owner's Manual or to Obtaining Service in this manual.
DISTANCE: The distance you have travelled appears once you begin a workout. Distance can
appear in miles or kilometers. If you wish to change the display, you can follow the instructions
found in Customizing the Display.
TIME: During your workout, a time (00:00) display appears automatically and stops whenever you
pause or stop the running belt. As you work out, you will notice that the time starts at zero and
counts up when you use distance-based courses. It counts down when in the timed courses and
alternates between counting up and counting down during the Interval and Weight Loss programs.
Time appears in minutes and seconds. However, should you exceed 60 minutes (during a single
workout), the time display converts to hours and minutes.
